Street Sweeping Services
Sweeping Corporation of America (SCA)
is now serving Los Alamitos Residents and Businesses
As an essential service, street sweeping serves as one of many best management practices to control and improve water quality. Motorized sweeping removes visible and invisible debris from the streets before it reaches storm drains. Visible debris such as paper and leaves, can collect in the gutter, which blocks storm water facilities and can cause localized flooding during heavy rains. Invisible debris, such as metal particles and other hazardous waste products left by passing vehicles can be extremely harmful to fish and other wildlife if it reaches creeks, rivers, beaches and bays.
